Here are some basic Frequently Asked questions regarding the City Builder Games website:

Q. Is there an advanced search?
A. Yes there is, although it's not very noticible how you get to it.  To access the Advanced search features look to the top of your screen and you will see a magnifying glass next to the search box.  Simply click on the image of the magnifying glass and you will be taken to the advanced search page where you will have more options on what and how you wish to search this website.
Do I have to me a member to download any content from this website?
A. Yes you do.  But fret yourself not.  We are a free service so it costs you absolutely nothing but a few minutes of your time to register.  Once registered you will be able to download any content that other members have added to the software repository (not to be confused with supository) as well as participate in the forums that we have available on this website.
Q. Why do I need to be logged in or a member to download conent for my games?
A. The reason is simple.  We wish to reserve the servers bandwidth that we have available to us for those people that are willing to participate in our community here, and if we were to open up the download forum areas to anyone and everyone in the world, then the people that are willing participants of this community would end up with slower downloads and in general a slower site to visit because people that do NOT participate here would be able to download content and give back nothing to the community here.  For this reason we have chosen to limit the downloading of content to members only.    Of course this does nothing to actually prevent people from registering only to download content that we make available but I hope that those that have registered will also actively participate in our community as well since they have taken the time to register and I think they will find that our community is one of the best CB gaming communities available anywhere in the world all because of the fantastic members that we have here actively participating.

We have also decided to keep the content available to members only so that the content itself does not get leeched by users that post a direct link to the downloadable conent.  By forcing membership it forces the user to log into this website before they can download the content which keeps things running as smooth and as fast as the possibly can by eliminating the general populos from leeching files from our servers.

Please keep in mind that membership is free and only takes a couple minutes to register.
